Pros
A friendly group of people within the IT department. Disney park passes and discounts off Disney merchandise. A profitable company so there's no shortage of work.
Cons
Unfortunately, the company no longer offers perks such as stock options or a decent medical plan. The office is crowded, they offer no amenities like free coffee or water and there aren't enough stalls in the bathrooms during bathroom rush hour. The management doesn't promote internal career development and quickly hires externally. Compensation is low for this industry, especially for such a successful company and getting a promotion is very difficult. People stay because the work is steady but they are very displeased with the type of work and the lack of growth. There are too many managers and not enough developers to do all of the work. If you speak up, it isn't received with a positive view. If you're looking for a place where you can gain solid software development skills, this is not the place. The type of work that's available is more along the lines of application programming and not enterprise application development.
